In regard to health care coverage,
the average number of uninsured
Americans over a two-year period
(2010 2011) was 47,921,500. Hill-
sborough County is home to .51
percent of the nation's uninsured or
234,512 people. Out of all the coun-
ties in all the states, Hillsborough
ranks 21st in uninsured residents.
Hillsborough isn't the worst in
Florida. Miami-Dade is home to
1.65 percent of the nation's unin-
sured and ranks number three.
Broward County has .88 percent
and is ranked 12th. Palm Beach has
.59 percent and Orange County has

.55 percent. They are ranked 19 and
20 respectively.
It's amazing that with numbers
this bad, the Florida Legislature
and the governor continue to drag
their feet in helping to implement
the Affordable Care Act.
The issue of a U.S. military re-
sponse to Syria's alleged chemical
weapons attack against its own
population is very complex. Good
Americans are lining up on both
sides of the issue and we are finding
it hard to fault any congressional
member voting yes or no because

of the complexities.
We do find fault with elected
leaders who use simple litmus tests
to evaluate options in foreign policy.
Florida Republican Congress-
man and Tea Party darling Ted
Yoho is one of those simpletons.
He told one of the news channels,

"You are talking about attacking a
sovereign country that did not at-
tack the United States of America
and I cannot support that."
That simple foreign policy would
have kept us out of military in-
terventions in Afghanistan, Iraq,

It's not every day you see a United States Navy submarine in the Hills-
borough River...but for over a decade, the USS Requin (SS-481) called
those waters her home port.
A Tench-class diesel-electric submarine, Requin was commissioned just
before the end of World War II in April, 1945. In 1946, she was converted to
be a radar picket submarine. Following a conversion back to operating as a
normal attack submarine in 1959, she served honorably at sea from the
Atlantic Coast until she was decommissioned in 1968.
She was then pressed into service as a Naval Reserve Training ship in
St Petersburg. In 1972, she trekked to the other side of the Bay and was
docked in the Hillsborough River, next to Ashley Drive, where she served

as a tourist attraction.
Here she is, photographed in 1985 from the top of Park Tower, then
known as the Lykes Building. The parking garage shown to the leftat the
comer of Kennedy and Ashley was torn down to make room for the
NCNB Tower "Beer Can" building, now Rivergate Tower. The area in the
middle of the photo was the rose garden, which was already under
construction when this photo was taken. At the far right is the Curtis
Hixon Convention Center and the Tampa Museum of Art, both of which
no longer exist. The submarine was closed down to visitors in 1986, but
was at the center of a molestation scandal in 1988.

S+Si^WHAT HAPPENING
In Id YbEr

By Emily Carney

It may very well be. Just
ask Jonathan Ward, owner,
lead designer and presi-
dent of a California Com-
pany called ICON. A much-
too simplistic description of
ICON is that they retrofit old
vehicles. Jeeps, Toyota Land
Cruisers, and, the latest, a
1965 Dodge D200, are all the
brain and brawn children of
Ward.
The initial idea for the
unique business was born
out of the'marriage of an-
other company called TLC,
the Nation's leading Land
Cruiser service center. The
company, that is, Jonathan,
rebuilt Toyota's iconic tough

vehicle to be even better than
new.
As Jonathan's reputation
grew globally, he became a
consultant for Toyota. As
such, .pursuant to a special
project, he was asked by Mr.
Eiji Toyoda to build three
running and driving proto-
types of what became the
2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser. "The
results are what we know to-
day as the ICON, a vehicle
without peers for a journey
without boundaries," Ward
said. Classic styling, modern
performance and timeless
utility," said the enthusias-
tic Jonathan. He defines ret-
rofitting vintage vehicles as,
"A response to the direction
I had seen the collector mar-
ket heading in, as demands
and expectations on classic
cars grew to expect modern
performance married to clas-
sic styling." In other words,
there is a demand from peo-
ple with plenty of funds for
specialized off-road vehicles
built on vintage bodies.
The market for these
unique vehicles may be a
relatively limited one. How-
ever, there may be sufficient
demand for these hand-built
units, costing upwards of
$100,000 to cause the com-
pany to skyrocket to fame
and fortune.
According to Entrepreneur
Magazine: "Icon has grown
into a 28-person,-$5.2 mil-
lion business." The article
said that "Ward expects rev-
enue to triple over the next
three years."
A 2013 Popular Mechan-
ics article described a trans-
formed Dodge truck as "cus-
tom machined mirrors along
with updated trim and new
tailgate latches make it a
looker. The leather interior
using Native American Res-
ervation, free-range Bison
might be over the top,, but,
yeah, we'd probably brag

about our Buffalo seats
had them."
The price of the u
Dodge may sound
sporty at $300,000. Bi
Wyoming rancher whc
chased it said he in
to use. it to pull horse
ers and ride fence for
time.
Ward sent the tru
Banks Power for a full
haul of its 5.9-liter i
six-cylinder Cummins
diesel powertrain.
The net. result of a
intake manifold,
cooler, exhaust, elect
and methanol injection
whopping 500 HP and

~8I. .~ -

'1~

lb-ft of torque.
First gear in the
speed manual transm:
is marked "L" because

that much torque on tap you
rarely need to use it.
Starting in second or
even third gear is the norm.
"When the turbo kicks in af-
ter a second or two it's like
getting hit in the rear by a
herd of American bison." All
of the knobs and 'controls in
the cabin have been rebuilt
in a period-correct style us-
ing machined-tooled alloys,
while tinted acrylic sun vi-
sors and a refinished modern
gauge cluster are the most
obvious nods to the truck's
21st century underpinnings.
Lap-only seatbelts all around
are definitely not.
A most cordial Jonathan
Ward told us, "We currently
offer three production mod-
els; our FJ series (available
now in four body styles), our
CJ series and the new Bron-
co. The CJ's run $79,000 to
$101,000, and our FJ series
starts at $105,000, with av-
erage orders in the $130-
165,000 range (depending
on options, body style and
Design Package choices).
"Currently, CJ or FJ se-
ries build times are averag-
ing seven to eight months.
The new Bronco models take
a bit longer." "This is an ex-
perience for people who feel
the thrill of classic design
blended with modern perfor-
mance," he concluded.
We must add, and those
who can afford the extreme
luxury.

be interested in more infor-
mation about all ICON prod-
ucts, please check the nu-
merous sites on the Internet

| In our efforts to improve
IJ our community and establish
a robust economy, we must
take advantage of the talents
of all our citizens. We must
e set the talent free. A great
place to start is' to stop the
racial/ sexual/ageism profil-
ing. The use of the word pro-
s if we filing conjures up negativity
that herein is not intended.
unique What is meant here is that
a bit in our search for resources,
uit the talent and good neighbors, to
) pur- improve our community we
tends need to think broadly about
trail- where to find these human
a long and other resources. We
must seek to find out who
ck to among us is interested in
over- this pursuit, and capable of
nline- economically providing sat-
Turbo isfactory results. Currently,
the long term planning ap-
a new preaches and our expen-
inter- ditures of money to attract
ronics outside persons and new
n is a businesses to grow our econ-
d 975 omy do not always factor in
the available local talent and
citizen interest. We all see
*--:- Tampa Bay as our land to
grow and nurture. Our long
term planning and municipal
decisions should reflect this
belief that we care.
What about this racial/
sexual/age-profiling claim?
It appears that as we go about
the business of improving
our land, the expenditure of
funds with local businesses
and/or the search for tal-
ent to fill job vacancies and
.. vacant board appointments,
B quite often reflect a bias to-
ward "it is how we've always
done it." The process is limit-
Ige ing.
Some examples of lim-
iting behavior are the no-
tices placed in communica-
six- tion journals known to be
mission mostly read by particular
with groups of citizens...and not

others. Our print advertise-
ments and other means to
attract to Tampa talent and
resources from other places
in the world, often show only
a few of the wonderful things
available in the Bay area.
Our symbols may show the
beaches and beautiful peo-
ple. without also including
the great fishing and outdoor
cooking. We show our night
life without showing the op-
portunity for the quiet life.'
Too often, even these ad-
vertisements are not dis-
persed in ways, or to places,
that will net a broad array
of interest. It appears some-
times that we have designat-
ed categories for citizen ac-
tivism by race, sex and age.
This is the profiling notion.
S The thought is that if
you're a young white male
or female, your interest is in
new business ventures and
a great place downtown to
hang out. We therefore es-
tablish and fund downtown
ventures that attract this
group without reaching out
broadly for similar place-
ments in other sections of
the community or encourag-
ing all citizens to join in.
If you're African Ameri-
can, "ride-alongs" with law
enforcement officers and fo-
rums on how government
works rather than providing
work within these agencies is
considered involvement.
For Latins, saving some
buildings through historic
designations and writing
Spanish words on streets
and water towers are noble,
but don't full take advan-
tage of this attractive draw.

What about an Ybor City
with a focused Latin flavor as
a way of life and. Latin rep-
resentation on all municipal
bodies?
If you're elderly or white,
we've 'continued to preserve
all that is private as we lease
all that is public. Those citi-
zens able to afford fnember-
ships in private clubs remain
alive and well, while public
golf courses, swimming pools
and ball fields satisfy the
rest. That's the way it has al-
ways been. The movers and
shakers need to meet their
other neighbors.
These words are not in-
tended to be negative criti-
cism. This is a gap analysis
and a challenge from the
Saturday Morning Breakfast
Group for us to look at where
we are as related to what we
profess as our goal to have
the greatest city and region.
There is talent all around us
if we can abandon the target-
ing and look to all the citi-
zens. We're not so naive as to
think that change is easy or
always wanted.
Nevertheless, we're asking
that along with the newly-
established, STEM (Science,
Technology, Engineering
and Mathematics) oriented
Wave organization, we-look
to Computer Mentors arid its
leader, Ralph Smith, who has
been in the business for two
decades. We say also that if
the Economic Development
Innovation Initiative (ED12)
program wants "to drive the
growth of technology, inno-
vative start-ups and small
business," they should look.
to Dr. Anderson Prewitt with
his skill set that includes
electrical engineering, mate-
rial science and mentoring
students in STEM fields.
Let's stop the racial, sex-
ual and ageism profiling and
set the talent free.

The Man Who Rose

from the Dead

I've always hated those
people who claim that get-
ting their tattoos didn't hurt,
as though they are so tough
that a needle akin to a sew-
ing machine's driving ink
under their skin for hours on
end didn't bother them.
"Nah man," they say, "I
didn't flinch when I got my
tattoo." Or "I actually enjoy
the pain." Or my favorite, "I
fell asleep during it."
Trust me, I have four tat-
toos and they all hurt. Any-
one claiming otherwise is
a pathological liar; only the
sickest of individuals could
make such statements with
straight faces.
For years, I thought tat-
too liars sat on the bronze
medal stand of Olympic fib-
bers, with the perpetual gold
medal winners being those
women who say that they en-
joy pregnancy.
Well, I found another set
of people full of more bull
than the tattoo liars those
men who swear their vasec-
tomy didn't hurt. How do I
know this? Because I finally
took the plunge last week
and had my boys sliced.
I have heard from numer-
ous men that it is a pain-
less procedure, one that you
don't even know occurred
until it is done, and one that
has no painful days that fol-
low. "It's so easy," these men
said to me. "Don't worry
about a thing." LIES! ALL
LIES! Why?! Why would they
lie to me?! Why were they so
cruelly untruthful? What did
they have to gain?! What?!
WHAT?!?!?!
Does the actual procedure
hurt?. Well, technically, no.
But the reason for that is
because the doctor numbs
your boys so they don't feel
any pain. How does he numb
them? With two shots! No,
not shots of tequila injec-
tions ... needles ... ouchies
with sharp tips! THEY HURT!
MY GOD DO THEY HURT! It
feels like being kicked in the
boys twice by a mule.
As for the agony that sets
in once the anesthesia wears
off...
First, it starts with a
scorching sensation, one
that stop, dropping and roll-
ing ain't curing!
Once the burning sub-
sides, the tenderness, be-
gins. A piece of dust landing
on my pants sent me yelp-
ing through the house like a
scolded dog.
However, even worse than
the physical pain is the men-
tal anguish.
We doh't want more kids.
A vasectomy is a better op-
tion than a woman getting
her tubes tied; the complica-
tions for women far outweigh
the complications for men.
Birth control is not 100 per-
cent. And condoms are for
sailors.
I never argued against the
procedure. It was the right
thing to do.
I am not some overtly
closed-minded macho man
who is embarrassed by the
thought of getting a vasecto-
my, as made obvious by the
fact I'am writing about it for
the world to see.
I know that a vasectomy
does not make me less of a
man. But ... but ... some-
times that small illogical
voice inside your head yells
out loud enough to drown

out your larger logical voice.
The big snip was tough
on my id. Men are trained
as boys by cable television,
Playboy and porno to believe
that our entire existence re-
volves around our penises.
And our animalistic nature
tells us to procreate with as
many women as possible, to
spread our seed to the far
reaches of the world. Mess-
ing with my society-instilled
instincts and my natural
-born instincts was hard on
my brain. Have a piece of my
manhood sliced left me feel-
ing violated and like a "girlie
man." I was ashamed.
I was in a funk for days.
I felt-like I needed to go out
into the world and prove
my manhood. I wanted to
wrestle a bear, race a mo-
torcycle, hit a homerun, and
have sex with a Playmate, all
at the same time. Of course,
the motorcycle and the sex
would have been immensely
painful, and I can't grip a bat
anymore because of my de-
formed hands from too many
broken fingers playing flag
football. I did find a bear who
Wanted to wrestle, but it was
in GayBor rather than the
wild, and that would have
been more painful than the
sex with the Playmate.
So all I could do was sulk,
and sulk I did ... then, Sun-
day night arrived. I had a
fantasy football draft. Amy
took the older two kids on a
walk. Alaina was sleeping.
All I had to deal -with was
Ben. HAHAHAHA! All I had
to deal with was Ben! Ahh ...
the word "all" has NO right
being in that sentence.
In typical Ben fashion, he
was a monster. He spent the
entire draft trying to close
my laptop and slam on the
keyboard. I could not think.
I could not strategize. Hell, I
could barely click the button
to pick a player. It was my
worst fantasy football draft
ever.
I don't have. much of a
social life. I only go out
with friends once every few
months. I quit my longtime
gym years ago, so now I
workout alone, and only do
so three days a week for 20
minutes a session. I no lon-
ger play flag football. I don't
participate in any network-
ing events. I don't go to any
independent film showcases
anymore.
It's all part of being a par-
ent to four kids. There is no
time for your life anymore.
Fantasy football was re-
ally my last social activity ...
and my son even took that
from me.
My team will stink; that is
for sure. The season will not
be furi.
Did the vasectomy hurt?
Yes. Did it make me feel like
less of a man? Yes. Was it
worth it? Hell yeah! There is
NO WAY I want a fifth mon-
ster running around my
home.
I am officially done having
children. Amen!
Arid in another 18 years, I
can have my social life back!
Damn ... now THAT
thought really hurts.

Gene Holloway Found
Alive in Canada
Susan Wall was born and
raised in Niagara. Except for
trips to Toronto and a few
other cities, she spent almost
every day of her 25 years in
the small town. That does not
mean she was naive. She was
far from it. Niagara is a bor-
der town, after all, and shady
characters passed through on
a regular basis. She could tell
a con man a mile away. Yet,
when she met Holloway, she
let her guard down.
She was sitting alone at
the bar of the Thunder Bird
Room, a then-popular Ni-
agara watering hole known
for its great live music, when
she met him. She had met a
lot of colorful characters in
her life, but he was by far the
most exotic. He was wearing
his trademark cowboy hat
and boots, along with a full-
length suede coat with a fur
collar. He told her his name
was James LaRue and he was
a seafood broker from Texas.
'He bought her drinks all night
and, trying to impress her, he
would tip the bartender $20 a
drink. He was also obviously
almost twice her age, despite
his best efforts to hide his
years behind hair dye. She
said in retrospect she should
have known he was full of BS,
but he was so fascinating and
exciting-to be around that she
fell for him.
"At the end of the night he
gave me his phone number
and told me that if I want-
ed to have dinner I should
call him," remembered Wall.
"And he told me I could bring
whomever I wanted, except for
boyfriends or husbands. For
some reason I trusted him,
but not enough to meet him
alone. I brought my sister."
Both Wall and her sister
missed further red flags dur-
ing their dinner date with Hol-
loway. He would tell stories
about himself yet kept refer-.
ring to himself as Gene rather
than James LaRue.
"I thought he must have
been telling stories that al-
ways included his friend
Gene," laughed Wall. "I won-
dered why this guy Gene was
always with him."
They continued to date for
a few weeks with Wall often
bringing her sister along for
the ride. Wall said that after
knowing one another for only
two weeks, Holloway confid-
ed in her sister that he was
in love with Wall and would
marry her. When her sister
told her the news, she was
flattered but said she was not
in love with him ... yet.
"I had feelings for him," she
said. "But love is a strong emo-
tion. I was excited, though.
Here was a fascinating and
successful man who was in
Love with me and kept promis-
ing me that he was returning
to the U.S. one day and would
bring me with him. It was an
adventure."
A week after he expressed
his love for her, he invited her
to go to Toronto with him for
an eye tuck. Holloway said
he never .received any plastic
surgery, which Wall said is
partially correct-an eye tuck
is not major enough to be
classified as "plastic surgery."
"It is a very minor proce-
dure. He just had some lines
he wanted taken care of," she
said. "And he said when we

left Toronto we were going ski-
ing further north."
They had a blast in To-
ronto. They shopped all day
at the finest stores and, dined
at night at the fanciest res-
taurants. For a man who was
trying to convince the world
he was dead, he was drawing
a lot of attention to himself.
Compounding matters, Hol-
loway said he errantly chose
his alias.
"Apparently, James LaRue
was a wanted bandit in Can- "
ada," laughed Holloway. "Just
my luck. Here I am, checking
into a hotel as James LaRue
and I give the hotel employ-
ees a big bag of cash to put
in their safe. Pretty soon, the
Royal Mounted Police took a
room next to mine and began
watching me."
The same limousine driver
who took Holloway across the
border was taking them to
their ski destination. Wall said
that she later learned Hollo-
way had planned the ski trip
with the girlfriend with whom
he crossed the border into
Canada. Before the limo driv-
er left them, this ex-girlfriend
had him promise to bring her
more marijuana, which he did.
He was not aware that Hollo-
way sent that woman back to
the Unites States. Wall said
she was not a pot smoker and
neither was Holloway at the
time. Holloway said that when
the limo driver handed Hollo-
way the bag of marijuana, he
wanted nothing to with it so
placed it in a shoebox and hid
it behind the vending machine
down the hall, a move the po-
lice witnessed. It was all they
needed .to see. A man by the
name of James LaRue had a
ton of money in the hotel safe,
was spending money loosely,
and had a bag of marijuana.
He was surely the infamous
LaRue Canadian law enforce-
ment had long wanted to ar-
rest.
The next day, Wall and
Holloway. climbed into the
limousine. Before the driver
could exit the hotel's parking
lot, the vehicle was swarmed
by police and they arrested
Holloway for drug trafficking.
When they later fingerprinted
Holloway they learned he was
actually a man pronounced
dead in the United States.
Wall was placed in an in-
terrogation room with "awall
splattered in blood," she said,
where she was informed of
Holloway's true identity and
story. She was not going to
be charged with anything and
the police would provide her
with a ride home. She said
that on her way out of the po-
lice station she saw Holloway
sitting in an office with a few
officers, laughing and having
a ball as though nothing bad
had happened.
"I got along fine with those
officers," remembered Hol-
'loway. "They brought me a
bottle of Jack Daniels at one
point and we all had'a few
slugs. I stayed there for a few
days and it was not bad at all.
I then went to court in Cana-
da and the judge told me he
was going to transfer me back
to the United States. I then
look out into the court room
audience and who do I see?
I see all these news people
from Tampa and around the
country! I later found out that
Johnny Carson mentioned me
on his show!"
Back in Tampa, the legend
of Gene Holloway exploded
unimaginably following the
news that he was alive. He
was the topic of seemingly ev-
ery conversation. Songs were
written about him and played
on Tampa radio stations and
local DJs hosted Gene Hollo-
LA GACETA/Friday, c

A present-day Gene
Holloway
way look-alike contests. Ironi-
cally, the winner of WRBQ's
was Kent McGregor, Tampa's
lead investigator on the Hollo-
way disappearance case.
"[McGregor] was later the
best man at my wedding,"
laughed Zapone. "Life is fun-
ny."
Gene Holloway Goes to Jail
The trial changed him, said
Wall. It brought him back
down to earth, she claimed.
It helped him realize that he
had lost sight of reality and
had gotten too caught up in
the fast-lane, partying world.
What really drove that fact
home was that his friends
turned on him in the arson
trial. The same people he sup-
plied with endless fun for so
many years took the stand
and told the jury that he told
them he burned down his
Thonotosassa. home.
Holloway said it did not
bother him. He said his
friends were only doing what
they thought they needed to
do. But Wall who, despite Hol-
loway's lies, moved to Tampa
to be with Holloway after the
arrest in Canada, said she
thinks it did bother him.
"It wasn't just the trial,"
she said. "I think it became
obvious to him that people
were using him by the ac-
tions of friends who were not.
involved in the trial. We were,
living in a place on Busch
Boulevard, and people would
stop by all day and night and
the first thing they would do
is go to his liquor cabinet and
pour themselves a drink with-
out even asking. They acted
like they owned the place.
Then we would go out to .din-
ner with friends and none .of
them, not one, would pull out
a wallet when the bill came.
Gene always had to pay for
everything."
On top of friends testifying
that Holloway told them he
was going to torch the house,
the prosecution had investiga-
tors testify that Holloway's car
was also lit on fire that night
but before it was consumed
someone removed its vanity
plate that read, "Holloway."
Holloway's defense painted
a picture of the witnesses be-
ing former friends" who were
angry with Holloway or who
were paid by the prosecution
to testify against him.
The defense worked. Hollo-
way was acquitted.
One juror told the daily
newspaper reporters that the
jury believed that Holloway
was guilty, but they acquit-
ted him because, "Nobody
believed nobody," referencing
the fact that the jury thought
the prosecution was corrupt.
"The jury as a whole did
not think the government
gave sufficient evidence to
prove Mr. Holloway was guilty
beyond a reasonable doubt
because of a conflict in evi-
dence," the jury foreman was
quoted as saying in daily
newspapers following the ac-
quittal.

Tucker/Hall and the Alliance for
Responsible Cuba Policy Founda-
tion are having a private cocktail
reception at the Tampa Museum
of Art this Sunday. The event will
be a reunion of local leaders who
traveled with the Alliance to Cuba,
starting with Mayor Dick Greco's
historic trip 11 years ago on July
28,2002.
Our first trip with the Alli-
ance was a few months before the
mayor's trip and opened our eyes to
the-many falsehoods that had been
propagated in our opinion of Cuba
due to the one-sided propaganda in
this country.
That trip was the beginning of
our education in US-Cuba policy
and led to our conviction that end-
ing the trade and travel ban was in
the best interest of Americans and
Cubans. That issue has been one of
our crusades for the last 11 years.
We know the Alliance, led by
Albert A. Fox, Jr., has helped
to change hundreds of opinions
regarding U.S.-Cuba relations in
Tampa and around the nation.

The J.C. Newman Cigar Family
will be honored with this year's
Adela and Cesar Gonzmart Award.
The award will be presented at
the 48th annual Ybor City Gala,
themed "Cruising the Tropics," on
Saturday, September 21, beginning
at 6:30 p.m. at the Columbia Res-
taurant in Ybor City.
Tickets are $100 for individuals
and $190 for couples. Call Anna
Ramos at 248-3712, ext. 22 or email
aramos@ybor.org for more informa-
tion and sponsorship opportunities.
The event is a fundraiser for the
Chamber.

The Washington Post recently
published an article about the
expensive, bizarre and silly efforts
this country has made in its efforts
for the people of Cuba to see the of-
ten-blocked signal of U.S.-produced
TV Marti. The article goes over
the history of blimps and a host of
planes being used as antennas to
broadcast TV Marti over the Cuban
government's block of the station.
The plane is now grounded, its
$12,000-a-day cost a victim of bud-
get cuts. TV Marti is still spending
millions a year producing shows
to stir the feelings of freedom and
democracy in Cuba, but no one in
Cuba is receiving the broadcasts.
Yet the spending continues, pro-
tected by Rep. Mario Diaz-Balart,
Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, Sena-
tor Marco Rubio and Senator Bob
Menendez. All Cuban-Americans
and all Republicans.

The Ybor City Museum Society's
30th Anniversary Gala will take
place Saturday, September 28, at

the Italian Club, located at 1731 E.
7th Ave., beginning at 6 p.m. with
a cocktail hour.
The rest of the night's festivi-
ties, which will include dinner, the
night's program and dancing, will
run from 7:30 to 11 p.m.

The Hillsborough County School
Board narrowed its list to three in
its search for a new Board attorney.
The elite group, in alphabetical
order, consists of Steve Anderson,
Jim Porter and David Singer.
The Board- is now supposed to
come up with a list of questions so
it can interview the candidates as
a Board. The process could take a
few weeks.
The first time the job was offered,
this newspaper pointed-out the
advertisement of the opening was
flawed and much too narrow. We
talked to individual Board mem-
bers who disagreed with our point
even though only three attorneys
applied and all were treated as
finalists. As the process continued
to the point of actually getting bids
on billing practices, some in the
field dropped out, leaving the Board
with an extremely limited choice.
The Board finally agreed to appro-
priately advertise the job opening,
leading to more applications and a
higher quality pool of candidates.
The readvertisement obviously
served the Board and the public
well, as these last three finalists
do not include any of the first three
applicants/finalists.

We had coffee with Congress-
woman Kathy Castor on Tuesday.
She told us she has been-busy
during the break trying to sell to
business groups and others the
importance to our economy of
implementing the Affordable Care
Act and immigration reform.
Her efforts could be linked to
the Greater Tampa Chamber of
Commerce releasing its position
on immigration reform this week.
The abbreviation of that position
is, "We need to continue' to be a
growing immigrant nation and we
cannot do so in a productive manner
under the current immigration sys-
tem... A predictable and reliable im-
migration system that attracts and
rewards more people that yearn
to pursue economic freedom and
prosperity in our country is good
for business. We urge compromise
on both sides [House and Senate]
to pass a pro-growth and compre-
hensive immigration reform law."
We asked Congresswoman Cas-
tor what type of constituent prob-
lems her office deals with most
often. It wasn't veterans' benefits,
Social Security problems, Medicare
nor Medicaid. By far, the number
one issue which her office receives
calls on is immigration.

The Tampa Bay Arts and Educa-
tion Network will hold a premiere
party for its original television
series, Characters of Ybor City,
on Wednesday, -September 18.
Characters is a six-episode series
that highlights some of Ybor City's
more memorable characters, people
whose presence added to Ybor
City's uniqueness. The series will
spotlight Dr. Jos6 Luis Avellanal,
Francisco Aristides Rodriguez,
Tony Pizzo, Roland Man'teiga, Al-

bert Knapp a.k.a. Abispo Verdi and
the Gonzmart family. Ybor City was
a village of characters and the list
could have easily been twenty, fifty
or a hundred individuals long.
Each character's story is told by
a speaker. The speakers respec-
tively are Gary Mormino, Susan
Greenbaum, Paul and Tony Pizzo,
this writer Patrick Manteiga, Jack
Fernandez and Richard Gonzmart.
The series will air on Bright
House Networks channel 614 and
32 on Verizon. It will start on Mon-
day, September 23, and will run for
six consecutive Mondays at 9 p.m.
Janet Lee Dougherty has filed to
run for County Commission District
4, which covers East Hillsborough
County. She joins two other Repub-
- licans, Dr. Stacy White and Rick
Cochran, and the lone Democrat,
Donna Lee Fore.
Ms. Dougherty is known to
many by her former married name,
Kovach. She is a small business
owner and has been very active in
the Port and environmental com-
munity. She served on the Tampa
Bay Regional Planning Council, the
Southwest Florida Water Manage-
ment District and as chair of the
Alafia River Basin Board. In 2003,
the Tampa Tribune even endorsed
her for supervisor of elections when
Governor Jeb Bush was seeking to
replace Pam Iorio.
She should prove to be a strong
challenger to White, who is current-
ly perceived as the front runner.
Tampa's major newspapers can't
help but give Ybor City a black eye.
This time, it was in the reporting of
a car-to-car shoot out that started at
Dreams Gentlemen's Club at 4218
E. 7th Ave. and ended up at Chelsea
Street and 40th Avenue.
Tampa Tribune's TBO.com used
the headline, "Altercation at Ybor
City adult club..." The closest this
incident came to the Ybor City bor-
der was 16 blocks. The downtown
courthouse is closer. A correction
was asked for and the online ver-
sion was corrected.
The Tampa Bay Times decided to
hedge its false reporting by writing,
"'The car to car shooting that began
in a strip club near Ybor City..." When
the Times reported on the ribbon cut-
ting for Ulele at Tampa Heights, why
didn't it write "near Ybor City," since
the shooting and the restaurant are
equal distances from Ybor, but in op-
posite directions?
The guilty party at the Times hid
behind the byline "Times Staff." If
the staff can't figure out the streets
and neighborhoods of Tampa, per-
haps it should reverse its masthead
to St. Petersburg Times.

Two weeks ago, we wrote of the

12th annual "Dia de Asturias" cel-
ebration at the' Centro Asturiano'
de Tampa on Sunday, September
15, from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. The
. information we were sent left out
the honoree. The Jinete Award will
be presented to Manuel "Manny"
Alvarez, senior vice president and
director of community affairs for
USAmeriBank. He has been along-
time advocate and a consummate
volunteer in efforts to promote and
preserve Latin heritage and history
and in bettering this community.
Cost for the event is $40. Call
229-2214 or 689-1572 if you'd like
to attend.

The Times reported on Thursday
that School Board Chair April Grif-
fin was advocating on behalf of a
Plant High School family who felt
the District ruled inappropriately
against them. The article goes on
the state that Griffin went over the
superintendent's head oirthe mat-.,
ter and it seems the punishment for
the slight was for the issue to be-
come fodder on newspapers' pages.
One item in the article we found
almost laughable was, "School
Board members usually do not
immerse themselves in day-to-day
decisions."
School Board members call the
superintendent or her top staff
frequently on behalf of parents, stu-
dents and teachers who are looking
for help, promotion, transfers and
a host of other things. The dirty
secret is that the superintendents
sometimes use these requests as a
way to reward or punish the Board.
A Board member in the superinten-
dent's favor has these requests fol-
lowed up on quietly and efficiently.
A troublesome Board member
might find his or her request not
only denied, but leaked to the press.
The School Board is the boss of
the superintendent, but the su-
perintendents have the ability to
reward and punish, giving them
the ultimate advantage.

The Ybor City Chamber of Com-
merce will hold its monthly lun-
cheon on Tuesday, September 10,
from 11:45 a.m. to 1:15 p.m. at the
Columbia Restaurant.
Guest speakers will include Al-
exandra Petropoulos, vice president
of travel at AAA Auto Club Group,
and Julio Soto, the group's director
of product development.
To register, contact Anna Ramos
at 248-3712, ext. 22 or email

RO6&Q DOMC OMAHO aRPO*- IWn aK.WSaR'TO9JPRIRT G3YRksH15

by PATRICK
JAS WE HEARD IT M = AN T E l'G AC

First things first. Lee Dan-
iels' The Butler is worth see-
ing. But not just because it's
a box office blockbuster with
plenty of show-biz buzz.
It's a compelling, heav-
ily fictionalized account of
a black White House butler
who actually served from the
Eisenhower to the Reagan Ad-
ministration. Poetic dramatic
license was obviously not
spared in reflecting the roiling
racism of the times. Newsreel
footage added. gritty reality.
Oprah Winfrey has a major
part, not including her mas-
sive marketing appeal. Forest
Whitaker, who plays the role
of the character loosely based
on Eugene Alien's 34-year
White House tenure, is su-
perb. Other prominent enter-
tainment-world figures from
Robin Williams to. Jaie Fonda
were purposely included to
help hype the movie to white
audiences.
SBut because, not unlike 42,
it chronicles the ugly truth
of America's racist roots as
well as evolving race relations
- it should be seen by both
black and white audiences.
Especially those generations
who have never found time to
read the minutes of previous
racial meetings and think
reality kicked in with the de-
mise of Michael Jackson and
the death of Trayvonri Martin.
If you've seen Lee Daniels'
The Butler, you'll know what I
mean on this one: The movie
ran about 10 minutes too long.
Perhaps a prescient, conclud-
ing exchange between butler
father and erstwhile activ-
ist; Black Panther son about
when or if we would see
a black president and what
it would say about America -
would have sufficed.
But timing is everything.
The movie continued through
the Barack Obama campaign
and election. Plenty of "Hope"
and "Yes We Can" imagery
culminating with an invitation
for the elderly Whitaker-as-
Allen character to visit Presi-
dent Obama. The president is
not depicted, but he was ac-
tually written into the initial
script. Daniels rightly thought
it would have been "overkill."
The irony at this point is
palpably sad.
Four and a half years in,
the likely legacy of the first
administration headed by an
African-American increasingly
looks like "historic opportuni-
ty missed." Right-wing haters
have come out of hibernation.
They found cover in opposing
Obama's "policies." Some be-
lieve he's a "socialist," whatev-
er that means to them. 'Some
still see an ineligible imposter.
Others just see. themselves
looking up at someone they
think they should be looking

down on.
Liberals know he's much
better than the alternative
but also know that's an in-
sultingly low bar. Affordable
health care should be single
payer. Obama shouldn't have
had to "evolve" on gay rights.
Not all of his cabinet appoin-
tees have been sterling and
we may yet be revisited by
Lawrence Summers, this time
chairing the Federal Reserve.
There have been IRS and NSA
embarrassments. Foreign
policy regardless of the neo-
conned mess the president in-
herited now seems tentative,
flailing and nigh on too hawk-
ish on Syria.
At the climatic moment
that concludes The Butler, I
didn't want to be reminded of
what the tortuous, civil rights
struggle had apparently cul-
minated in. Our first black
president was. presiding over
perversely polarized politics,
the gridlock from hell and a
frenzied White House that
now seems more histrionic
than historic.
FAMUnimpressive
The Florida A&M Uni-
versity marching band per-
formed over the weekend. It
marked its first appearance
in a football stadium in nearly
two years or since the haz-
ing death of one of its drum
majors in 2011. One notable
change: There are only 126
band members now. Before
the savage beating death of
Robert Champion, there were
more than 400 not all of
whom were enrolled as FAMU
students. Hopefully, enough
time has elapsed for the cul-
ture of homicidal hazing to
have been purged.
Conspicuously absent from
the Florida Citrus Bowl was
Pam Champion, mother of the
late Robert, the hazing victim.
"I still feel there has been a
rush to put the band on the
field and that rush ... has to
do with finance," she said.
"They are putting profit before
safety."
Ouch.
But notably present was
Tracy Martin, the father of
Trayvon Martin, killed in San-
ford by neighborhood watch
vigilante George Zimmerman,
who was acquitted earlier
this summer. Martin was an
honorary captain for FAMU's
season-opener in Orlando. He
even led the Rattler football
team onto the field.
One question: Did offi-
cials really mean to associate
"stand your ground" abuse
with black-on-black crime?
Lt.-Gov. Search
The official word out of
Tallahassee is that Gov. Rick
Scott remains in no, hurry to
fill-the job of lieutenant gov-
ernor. Certainly not while

the Democratic field remains
far from settled. Scott Chief
of Staff Adam Hollingsworth,
who's in charge of the search,
says the key Lt-Gov. criteria
is basic. The Jennifer Car-
roll successor must be some-
one who has "the same policy
mind-set as the governor, has
the same vision for moving
Florida forward, and would
do it with an integrity that is
consistent with the governor's
character."
Only one, seemingly obvi-
ous, problem: The key criteria
should eliminate, well, every-
body.
Sports Shorts
Debuting head coach Wil-
lie Taggart called it a "night-
mare." Not everyone would
agree. It wasn't that good. Tag-
gart's USF Bulls were routed
and embarrassed by McNeese
State, 53-21, Saturday night
at Raymond James Stadium.
Yes, THAT McNeese State, a
3-touchdown underdog 1-AA
team that was supposed to
come to town for token op-'
position in exchange for that
$400,000 guarantee.
Among those most inter-
ested in that shocking re-
sult: the fledgling American
Athletic Conference and the
University of Central Florida.
The AAC, USF's new home, is
what morphed out of the old
Big East. It has lost luster and
will not have an automatic
BCS bowl berth after this sea-
-son. It didn't need this cred-
ibility hit.
As for UCF, it is now in
the same conference with the
school that felt it was slum-
ming by playing the Knights
from 2005-08 and has kept
them off the schedule despite
UCF's lobbying. Now they are
fortuitous peers and must
meet. On Nov. 29, USF will
travel to Orlando to play UCF,
which defeated Akron, 38-7,
in its opener. You can bet UCF
has had it circled for a while.
You can bet it's emboldened.
Nobody wants to be the sec-
ond-best team in the 1-4 cor-
ridor.
Once again the issue of
compensating big-time col-
lege athletes is in the news.
Here's the bottom line.
First, if schools would only
recruit legitimate student-
athletes, that would take care
of half the problem. Student-
athletes understand the value
of a diploma, exposure in a
public arena and a lifetime of
key contacts to help leverage
or launch a career. An edu-
cation can be its own reward
to those inclined to consider
the concept. But most big-
time football and basketball
programs are convinced they
can't compete at the highest
levels without lineups top-
heavy in mercenaries.

Viera recently received
the news that he would be
honored by Tampa Hispanic
Heritage, Inc., at a dinner on
Thursday, September 19, for
his various efforts enriching

ARIES (March 21 to April
19) Aspects favor new romances
for unpaired Ewes and Rams.
Already-paired Arian twosomes
experience renewed harmony in
their relationships. Money mat-
ters also take a bright turn.
TAURUS (April 20 to May
20) Use that strong Bovine de-
termination to help you keep the
faith with your convictions while
you move through a period of un-
certainty. Things begin to ease
by the week's end.
GEMINI (May 21 to June 20)
Pay attention to your intuition. It
could be alerting you to be more
careful about accepting a "state-
ment of fact" simply on trust.
Don't be shy about asking for
more proof.
CANCER (June 21 to July
22) Concern for the well-being
of someone in need is admira-
ble. But don't forget to take care
of yourself as well. Ask a fam-
ily member, close friend or col-
league to help you.
LEO (July 23 to August
22) It's OK to focus on the de-
mands of your career. But try
to avoid misunderstandings by
also reaching out to family and
friends. Your sharp intuitive
sense kicks in by midweek.
VIRGO (August 23 to Sep-
tember 22) Keep a rein on that
green-eyed monster. Jealousy is
counterproductive. Instead of re-
senting a colleague's good points,
concentrate on developing your
own abilities.
LIBRA (September 23 to Oc-
tober 22) Spending time on a

the community. "It's marvel-
ous," he smiled. "I'm honored
and I think Tampa Hispanic
Heritage is a great organiza-
tion. I'm very proud of my His-
panic heritage. If you go to my
office, I have pictures of my
great-grandparents getting
married and my grandparents
getting married. My Hispanic
heritage and my Cuban heri-
tage is a big part of who I am.
So, to be honored by an orga-
nization that lauds that cul-
tural bond we have is a real
honor."
Viera explained his need to
stay involved in community
endeavors. "Call me idealis-
tic...call me Jimmy Stewart,"
he said with a laugh. "But be-
ing an American is the great-
est blessing in life. We're the
greatest country on earth. It
behooves everybody who is
an American to give back and'
give to your community. It's
about giving voices to people
who don't have voices. We've
been given a lot in life...I'm an
attorney. I have a wonderful,
beautiful, healthy son. I have
my health. I've got to give
back."

creative project during this high-
energy week can pay off both in
emotional satisfaction and in im-
pressing someone who is glad to
see this side of you.
SCORPIO (October 23 to No-
vember 21) Now is a good time
to start planning that trip you've
put off because of the demands
on your time. Be sure to choose
a destination that is new and ex-
citing.
SAGITTARIUS (November
22 to December 21) That up-
beat mood in the first part of the
week makes you eager to take
on new ventures. A more serious
note sets in later to help you as-
sess an upcoming decision.
CAPRICORN (December 22
to January 19) A high energy
level gives the Goat the get-up-
and-go to finish outstanding
tasks before deadline, leaving
time for well-earned fun and
games with friends and family.
AQUARIUS (January 20 to
February 18) Dealing with dis-
appointment is never easy. But
the wise Aquarian will use iA as a
vital lesson and be the better for
it. A close friend has something
important to say.
PISCES (February 19 to
March 20) Best bet is not to get
involved in an argument between
colleagues until you know more
about who started it and why.
And even then, appearances
could be deceiving. Be alert.
BORN THIS WEEK: You have
creative gifts that inspire those
who get to see this sometimes-
hidden side of you.

In Context

The Founding Fathers were'
a picture of contradiction:
Radical leftists when they incit-
ed war against established gov-
ernment, they were conserva-
tives in creating a new system
that was virtually impossible to
change.
The Constitution adopted in
1789 was intended to be very
difficult to amend. It requires
not only a two-thirds vote by
both houses of Congress, but
also approval by both cham-
bers of three-quarters of state
legislatures. Almost any issue
is nearly passe by the time it
can jump these hurdles.
In 1920, when Congress fi-
nally passed the 19th Amend-
ment that enfranchised wom-
en, there were 48 states. This
meant that feminists had to
win a positive tally among the
men in 96 state chambers from
sea to sea. (For those of you
with detailed- knowledge, Ne-
braska had not yet adopted its
unicameral legislature.)
Last week, I wrote that Hen-
ry Cabot Lodge, Republican
of Massachusetts, was Sen-
ate president and opposed the
amendment. Feminists had
worked hard to defeat two op-
ponents and replace them with
supporters in the 1918 elec-
tions, but knowing he would
lose Lodge managed to block
senators from voting until June
4, 1919. His strategy was clear:
By then, most state legisla-
tures would have adjourned,
and it would be more difficult
for women to win ratifications.
Florida became the first focus.

Assuming that the Univer-
sity of Florida has my history
of Florida women in print by
next March (Women's History
Month), you will be able to read
much more on this. For now,
suffice it to say that the Florida
Woman Suffrage Association
formally lobbied the legisla-
ture from the 1913 session on-
wards. Indeed, Montana's Jea-
Snette Rankin who in 1916,
would be the first woman elect-
ed to Congress spoke in Talla-
hassee in April 1913. Accord-
ing the Jacksonville organizer,
Roselle Cooley:
.The House of Representa-
tives decided to hear us in a
Committee of the Whole, at an
evening session. In this case,
it meant the whole House, the
whole Senate, and the whole
town. Seats, -aisles, the steps
of the Speaker's rostrum were
filled, windows had people sit-
ting in them and in the hall, as
far as one could see, people
were standing on chairs to hear
the first call for the rights of
women ever uttered in the Capi-
tol of Florida.
The House quickly rejected
their appeal, with 29 in favor
and 39 opposed. The Senate
vote in late May was closer, but
went down at 15-16. Feminists
thought they would prevail, but
as Cooley summarized, they
"lost to the corporations and
the whiskey men."
Florida legislators met only
once during their two-year
terms back then, so there was
no session in 1914. The 1915
session brought less result
than 1913, although 1915 was
the year that the legislature
first allowed municipal enfran-
chisement for women inad-
vertently.
The new city of Fellsmere
on the East Coast (larger than
Palm Beach back then) sent
its charter to the legislature
with women enfranchised for
municipal elections and no
one in Tallahassee noticed
the clause. Almost two-dozen
towns followed this precedent
during the next five years, but
all were new. In Tampa, Jack-

By Doris Weatherford

sonville, and other established
cities, women remained vote-
less in municipal elections and
all others.
The next year was an elec-
tion year, not a legislative ses-
sion one, but 1916 was crucial
in that May Mann Jennings
informally took over political
leadership. A former Florida
first lady, she was kin to for-
mer Democratic presidential
nominee William Jennings
Bryan. His wife, Mary Baird
Bryan, may have been the first
woman in the world to earn a
law degree after marriage and
motherhood. She had been ad-
mitted to the Nebraska bar in
1888.
Both the Jennings and the
Bryans retired to Miami, and
legislators fell all over them-
selves to welcome Mrs. William
Jennings Bryan (as she always
was called in the press) to Tal-
lahassee for the 1917 session.
The Tampa Tribune wrote that
lawmakers listened spellbound
as she spoke for an hour and a
half but not enough of them
voted as she asked them to do.
The women were asking for
an amendment to the state
constitution, which, like the
federal one, required a two-
thirds majority. After much
parliamentary maneuvering,
40 representatives voted posi-
tively and 27 negatively, five
votes shy of two-thirds.
1918 was not a regular-ses-
sion year, but Governor Sidney
Catts called a special session to
deal with other matters. Bryan
and her association astutely
decided not to test the limits of
their legislative allies by adding
enfranchisement to the lim-
ited agenda. Into the vacuum,
however, rushed young Helen
Hunt of Jacksonville.
She led about fifty Florid-,
ians who were associated with
the National Woman's Party
(NWP), an organization whose
tactics included boisterous
demonstrations and provoked
arrests. Parties were very dif-
ferent then than now, and most
of the "radical chic" NWP mem-
bers were Republicans. They
had opposed all Democrats in
the 1914 and 1916 elections,
including Democrats who sup-
ported the vote. May Mann
Jennings warned that they
could have a negative influence
with the virtually all-Demo-
cratic Florida legislature, but
young NWP members would
not be dissuaded.
Unaware of these internal
conflicts between women's or-
ganizations, a Jacksonville
representative introduced the
resolution written by his con-
stituent, Helen Hunt. Even
strongly Democratic Gover-
nor Catts seemed oblivious to
NWP's reputation as Republi-
cans, and he asked the legisla-
ture to approve the resolution.
It differed importantly from.
those in the past, in that it
was not intended to amend the
Florida Constitution, but rather
the US Constitution. Yet, even
though the sponsor pointed
out that Democratic President
Woodrow Wilson recently had
endorsed the federal amend-
ment, that was not enough for
Florida's conservative Demo-
crats. The resolution failed in
the House, 31-37.
When Congress finally sent
the 19th Amendment to the
states on June 4, 1919, Flori-
da's legislature was scheduled
to adjourn at noon on Friday,
June 6. On Thursday morn-
ing, Governor Catts sent a mes-
sage:
While this office has not re-
ceived verification from Wash-
ington, still The Associated
Press would not dare publish
something of so vast importance

as this, if it were not true.
The legislature...will adjourn
tomorrow and it has an oppor-
tunity, while now in regular...
[session] to be the first state in
the sisterhood of states to ratify
this great movement.
Therefore, as governor of our
great state, I earnestly recom-
mend that you ratify this ac-
tion...and add an imperishable
laurel to your state, which can
never die; the fact of being the
first state of the Union to recog-
nize women as an equal with
her brother man.
His language was stirring,
but according to the Tribune,
legislators paid "no attention
to the governor's message."
That was not surprising, but
some were surprised when May
Mann Jennings did not rally
her thousands of troops. But -
after years of disappointments
- she and other leaders had be-
come wary enough to see that
adding this big question to the
last day's agenda likely would
doom it to defeat.
Their head count showed
that they could get a majority
Vote, but the extraordinary ma-
jority needed to take up a bill
so late in the session probably
would be impossible and the
consequences of losing could
be harmful in other states.
The subhead of the June
7, 1919 edition of the Tampa
Daily Times summed up the
situation: FLORIDA WILL NOT
BE FIRST STATE TO RATIFY
SUFFRAGE AMENDMENT;
Women Leaders Not Willing to
Take Chance on Putting Land
of Flowers in Line as the First
to Turn It Down."
Florida's feminists dis-
missed possible personal glory
for themselves rather than
risk the disaster of having 'the
amendment fail in its first test.
Given legislators' propensity for
double-dealing, and knowing
how they rush out of Tallahas-
see like schoolboys set loose for
vacation, Jennings and others
doubtless- made the right call.
Lawmakers adjourned on Fri-
day, and on Tuesday morning,
three states Wisconsin, Il-
linois and Michigan compet-
ed with each other to be first.
Florida's legislature would not
meet again until 1921, after its
women had voted in 1920,

To Senator Lodge's dismay,
Massachusetts ratified in June
1919, along with Ohio, New
York, Kansas, Pennsylvania
and Texas. With the first three
Midwestern states, that made
nine of the necessary 36. In a

erything shut down in July and
August, and the summer could
have been fatal to momentum.
But Carrie Chapman Catt, who
led the mainstream national
organization, was very politi-
cally astute.
While the Senate delayed in
the spring, she lined up gover-
nors who were willing to call
special sessions for ratifica-
tion. This is extremely difficult
to do. Governors hate calling
sessions not only because of
the expense, but also because
legislators can go awry on other
issues. Catt nonetheless man-
aged to get the women of her
two-million member organiza-
tion to persuade thousands of
legislators to sign pledges for a
single-day, one-issue session
without pay.,
Iowa, Missouri, Arkansas
and Montana joined the list in
July, but August brought only
Nebraska. Momentum picked
up in the fall, and by the end
of 1919, eight more states had
ratified. In chronological or-
der, they were Minnesota, New
Hampshire, Utah, California,

The Man Who Rose

from the Dead

(continued from page 11)
Holloway was not clear
yet. He still had to go on trial
for conspiracy charges stem-
ming from faking his own
death. He said he could have
beaten those charges as well,
but chose to plead guilty and
serve a five year sentence in
order to remain alive. "There
were still people trying to kill
me," he said.
Before he disappeared from
the public eye for half a de-
cade, he gave reporters one
last story. He met with re-
porters at his residence and
explained why he faked his
death. He said he had been
bored with his life and wanted
to start anew so he could pur-
sue adventure throughout the
world. He even went into spe-
cifics, explaining that prior to
faking his. death he had been
in contact with South African
mercenaries who regularly
frequented the Sea Wolf. He
said they wanted his help with
a coup attempt in Seychelles
in the Indian Ocean and it
was they who gave him the
fake name James LaRue, told
him to fake his death, and go
to Canada to await their or-
ders. Holloway said that fol- -
lowing the coup attempt he
was going to return to Tampa.
He- said he only set up the new
life insurance policy in case
he was killed in the coup.
"I'd rather not comment
on that," said Holloway when
asked if that story is true.
"But I can tell you what is not
true. A lot of people think I
collected on that new life in-
surance policy. Well I did not.
I never collected one penny on
it. Print that please. I am tired
of the lies. I could not collect
on a policy that big without a
body to show!"
He served his sentence in
Kentucky. Wall moved there -
and the two were married in
1982. She visited him almost
every day of his incarcera-
tion. She said she saw first-
hand how she believes prison
changed him for the better.
He began eating properly, she
explained, exercising regu-
larly and even ran marathons
sponsored by the prison. He
was a bright light in a dark
place, she said, sponsor-
ing Christmas contests that
gave prizes to the best deco-
rated cell and he would help
other prisoners better deco-
rate their own cell by finding
them things such as matching
sheets for the beds.
"He would even scavenge
around the prison for items
he could turn into decorations
for himself and others. I think
he wanted to turn the prison
into a Sea Wolf," she laughed.
Upon being released from
prison, he opened three new
Sea Wolfs between 1985 and
1990. One was located in a
Best Western across from
Busch Gardens. Another was
in Hyde Park and the third
was in Citrus County. He
again tried to bring attention
to them through outlandish
PR stunts, such as hosting
the Chippendale dancers.
Despite his best efforts, all
three restaurants failed and
he ended up in bankruptcy
court in 1990.
"I never saw the originals,"
said Wall, "but I was with him
for the second go around and
from what I can tell from pic-
tures I saw of the originals, he
did not have the same money
to put into the new ones. They
were smaller and not as well
decorated. I guess you can't
recreate the past."
Wall said the number of
hours he poured into trying
to make the restaurants suc-
ceed placed too much stress
on their marriage. Then, her

mother became ill and she
had to return to Canada.
Shortly thereafter, they were
divorced.
"He worked so much," she
said. "He was the most driven "
man I had ever met and have
not met anyone so hard work-
ing since. At times it was a
detriment. I don't know if he
always took the time to enjoy
life. He was so consumed with
being successful that the little
things sometimes seemed un-
important to him."
When the success was
gone, so were his many so-
called friends. Without booze
and parties to offer, they had
no need for him anymore.
Suddenly, Gene Holloway was
alone ... and then, at some
point in the 1990s, he disap-
peared and has rarely been
heard from since.
Gene Holloway Today
He keeps quiet about what
he is up to today. He likes
to talk about treasure hunt-
ing and the skill that goes
into it, but he is mum on his
personal life. He is an open
book when reminiscing about
the past but when life for the
present-day Gene Holloway is
asked about, he clams up. His
personal life is no longer pub-
lic information. It is no longer
a marketing weapon. His per-
sonal life is, well, it's personal.
He has no desire to return
to the fast lane, he said. He
has no desire to be the cen-
ter of attention anymore, he
promised. He enjoys the new
simple life he has carved out
for himself, he swears ..
Following the closing of his
last Sea Wolf in 1995, he re-
located to Odessa.and began
his career as a treasure hunt-
er along the coastline. He said
treasure hunting had always
been a dream but he was al-
ways so busy with making
money that he did not take
the time to pursue it.
He is also back in the food
business. About eight years
ago he noticed grocery stores
throwing away food that was
still safe for consumption.
It was too old to sell but still
fresh enough to eat. He be-
gan visiting every grocery and
convenience store in the area,
collecting the food and deliv-
ering it to homeless shelters,
churches and soup kitchens
in his area, anywhere that
helps the needy.
Randy said that his father
owes so much money to the
federal government due to
unpaid taxes and fines dating
back to the 1980s and 90s,
that only a presidential par-
don could free him of the debt.
Holloway seems honest
when he says money means
nothing to him anymore. He
said he only wants to help his
fellow man. To prove his sin-
cerity, he said that his current
treasure hunting mission is
to find the legendary missing
H-bomb that conspiracy the-
orists claim the U.S. govern-
ment lost somewhere off the
coast of Savannah, Georgia,
in the 1950s. Holloway said
he is concerned that if it is not
found, it could one day harm
countless innocent people.
"I don't care about the
fame," he said. "It's all about
helping others now. It used
to be about -myself. Now I am
least concerned with myself."
He sounded and looked
earnest when he made that
statement. But, then again ...
he .is Gene Holloway.

Maine, North Dakota, South
Dakota and Colorado. Janu-
ary meant the beginning of
regular sessions, and .Ken-
tucky, Rhode Island, Oregon,
Indiana and Wyoming which
had been first to grant -the
vote in 1869 gv.e their ap-
proval .. ... .
February added" six. more:
Nevada, New Jersey, Idaho,
- Arizona, New Mexico, and
Okljlahoma. MarGh brought
just two: West Virginia and
Washington. West Virginia's
ratification on March 10th
was especially dramatic.
An opponent who had re-
signed a 'year earlier and
moved to llifiois tried to claim
that he still was entitled to.
vote; meanwhile, another
senator rushed by train from
California, while proponents
successfully kept their narrow
majority. The story is worthy
of a docudrama.
That was 34 of 36 states,
and on March 22, Catt per-
suladed Wasliigton to give
up on its desire"to be the last,
glorious one. 'The Washington
Territory -'first enfranchised
women 1883, and they want-
ed the drama of the final vote
to extend the right to their sis-
ters in other states. Its ratifi-
cation was the 35th of the es-
sential 36. *A
But Republican governors
in Connecticut ;and Vermont
adamantly refused to call
special sessions, and Catt
had nowhere to go except
South. That was not a propi-
tious scene, as Alabama and
Georgia specifically rejected
the amendment in 1919. In
chronological order during
early 1920, they were joined
by Virginia, Mississippi,
South Carolina, Maryland,
Delaware, Louisiana and
North Carolina. You can see
That all except Delaware were
former Confederate states -
and Delaware was the last
state-to abolish legal slavery.
Maryland legislators were es-
peciallv rabid opponents, even
paying their colleagues to lob-
bv'lgislatures in other states.
:Tthus, in August, it all came
down to Tennessee, which had
been waiting for the US Su-
preme Court to rule in a suit
filed by an Ohio opponent. In
Hawk vs. Smith, the court de-
clared that states could not
impose burdens greater than
a majority of two chambers,
and the Tennessee Senate
ratified on August 10.
.Some representatives,
however, were so strongly op-
posed that they holed up in
De 1ur. Alabama, to deprive
th use of its quorum.
Per dramas added to the
wivI ene of its ultimate 49-
47, sage but even after

that, the leadership refused
to send the ratification on to
Washington.
On August 24, a freshman
legislator displaced them and
put the resolution in the mail.'
When Secretary of State Bain-
bridge Colby received it on
the morning of August 26, the
right of all American women
to vote was added to the Con-
stitution.
Connecucut and Vermont
belatedly ratified the 19th
Amendment in September
1920 and February 1921.
Florida waited until 1969,
when it did so'to acknowledge
S'thie 50th anniversary of the
League of Women Voters.
Carrie Chapman : Catt
summed it up. Since the first
call for the vote in 1848, she
counted 480 campaigns .in
state legislatures; 56 state-
wide referenda to male voters;
47 attempts to add the right
during revisions of state con-
stitutions; 277 campaigns at
state party conventions and
30 at national conventions;
and 19 campaigns in 19 dif-
ferent Congresses.
Literally thousands of
times, mnen cast their votes
on whether or not women
could vote. Literally millions
of women (and men) worked
for the cause their entire lives
and went to their graves with
the victory unwon.
No peaceful political
change ever has required so
much from so many for so
long, and August 26 should
be a national holiday!
